I have not yet been able to duplicate the problem in a smaller test 
case, but I did stumble into a fix.  Changing the following statement in 
the cmath_log function from

	if (PyTuple_GET_SIZE(args) == 2)
		x = c_quot(x, c_log(y));

to

	if (PyTuple_GET_SIZE(args) == 2) {
		y = c_log(y);
		x = c_quot(x, y);
	}

fixes the problem for the 64-bit -xO5 Python build.  The result is no 
the same in all 32- and 64-bit builds with -xO0 and -xO5 on Solaris 10 
(Opteron) with SUN C.

>>> cmath.log(100, 2)
(6.6438561897747253+0j)

>>> cmath.log(0.01, 0.5)
(6.6438561897747244-0j)
